Was the Smile Machine e-Scooter Inspired by Aptera?
By insightman
Like an Aptera, the Lightfoot Smile Machine is covered in solar cells. Another thing they have in common is that driving either an Aptera or this e-Scooter would make me smile. The company says the Smile Machine's two 120-Watt solar panels can add up to 18 miles of range per day. I wonder if you could increase that by parking next to a big mirror, so both sides of the scooter can generate power? Perhaps some unfolding options for the solar panels would improve the...

Sun Visor Light not working
By actnjack
After looking in the user manual without success- nothing on the topic - I was about to contact support to get it fixed. Having studied the design of visor, I found that it had a battery compartment by gently prying it open. Yes, the batteries were dead. To check that the batteries were dead, I swapped out the two battery sleeves of the two visors and my hypothesis was correct. Each sleeve takes three CR2450 batteries

Engine bogs under heavy load
By Kaptain K
My bored .040 over (dome pistons) 318 with 340 J heads and automatic in a 68' Dart bogs down under heavy load. If I get into the throttle heavy while cruising, it pulls hard without any issues. If I kick in the secondaries from a stop, it pulls hard, but bogs down terribly just before it makes the 2-3 shift like it's out of fuel. If I lift and then get back in it, it pulls hard again. Fuel system is all OEM replacement parts including the fuel filter. The only aftermarket part in the system... Read more

78 Mustard Yellow FJ40 #Tiger40
By greenEFSI
I recently acquired a mostly original mustard yellow 1978 FJ40 with 52k original miles from my Father-in-law. It was purchased from the original owner in 1980 and parked for good in 1997. In Oct 2021 he towed it over to my house so we could get it running, but quickly realized he no longer had much interest in it after we drove around the block. He loved the FJ40 but did not want to put any more time or money into getting it back on the road. After owning it for so long, keeping it in the... Read more

Thrust washer help.
By arlenroy
Flushing out rear end and replacing rear brakes, I find this thrust washer in the diff housing. I've read every thread I could find, it goes behind the driver's side spider gear, easiest way is to rotate it until you can drop it in from the top, behind the spider? I'm just not seeing how that's possible, I see a C ring facing in but solid shaft behind it? What am I doing wrong?

Hershey AACA Mopar Pics
By turbine68rt
Went to the AACA show in Hershey with a friend and thought I'd share a few pics of some of the more interesting Mopars in attendance. The '65 Valiant is a Canadian version of the Dart. The Power wagon has a Canadian made frame that can rotate using what appeared to be a large tube coupling behind the cab.

Headman headers
By Cudafishboi
Good day, Got a set of hedman headers (#78056) for my 318 in my 69 barracuda. Tried for HOURS to get them in last night. And they just dont want to sit right. It seems the bottom of the forward tubes hit the steering box (i have power steering) like i know its possible I just dont know what the problem is. Like maybe its cause I have the slant 6 k member? But I have the Schumacher conversion mounts so I thought that would alleviate that. No idea. Hate to know I got these for nothing... Read more

Very stupid question
By Greybush
Incredibly embarrassed to ask this, but...how much oil is supposed to be in an LA 360? We put a new oil pan on a rebuilt 360. (I tipped the cherry picker and we had to change the pan). Already posted about that...Had 6.5 quarts in for the break in but it never even touched the dipstick. 6 oil plus pint of zinc. the pan is a doorman 264232. Couldn't find any oil capacity on Summit about the pan and it's anywhere from 5-7 quarts on the internet. Do we just fill it up til it registers? Thanks... Read more
